The original Donkey Kong (later established to be Cranky Kong from the Donkey Kong Country series)[13] made his first appearance as the titularantagonist of the 1981 arcade game Donkey Kong alongside protagonist Mario (then known as “Jumpman”) and damsel in distress, the Lady (later renamed Pauline). As Jumpman, the player must reach Donkey Kong at the top of each stage, where he is holding the Lady captive. Donkey Kong attempts to hinder the player’s progress by throwing barrels, springs, and other objects towards Jumpman. The ape reappeared the following year in the sequel Donkey Kong Jr., where Donkey Kong is taken captive and locked in a cage by the renamed Mario, while Donkey Kong Junior sets out to rescue him. Donkey Kong resumed his antagonistic role in Donkey Kong 3, this time the character Stanley the Bugman taking Mario’s place as the protagonist. Stanley fights Donkey Kong’s attempts to invade a greenhouse along with a horde of killer bees.

Donkey Kong was also antagonist of a very unsuccessful 3 episode anime series, which was aimed at children and ran from June 2 to August 19, 1985.

After Donkey Kong, Mario went on to become Nintendo’s primary mascot, while Donkey Kong and his son were relegated to supporting roles and cameos. The 1994 Game Boy version of Donkey Kong marked his re-emergence as a major character. He was redesigned, appearing with a red necktie, which sometimes bears his initials, “DK”.
